5.00very nice experience, our guide Mark speaks fluent English and he knows the route to watch pandas where it is less crowded. He always took care of me on the way as I'm a senior. The ride to Leshan Buddha is pretty long but worth it, really amazing buddha statue. Mark recommended a garden restaurant serving Sichuan dishes at affordable prices , I enjoyed it very much! would definitely recommend this tour.
Wonderful Tour!

5.00I loved this tour! Judy was a wonderful guide, very kind and knowledgeable. We arrived just in time for the pandas’ breakfast, so they were very active. They are so cute! The Leshan Giant Buddha was also wonderful, and I really appreciated being able to see both sites in one day. I highly recommend this tour!
Great value and wonderful trip

4.00A slower start with some delays on setting off but was so pleased that no time was cut from our time at the pandas or the Buddha. Mark is an amazing guide and has so much knowledge on all the places visited and is an all round great guy! Lunch was an amazing experience. Not included in the price but taken to a lovely local spot which is tucked away.
